Daniel||||scientist||from|small||||environmental protection|||interest
Daniel is a scientist, and he has been interested in environmental protection since he was a child.
佢 仲 記得 小學 嘅 時候 , 佢 每 次 返學 放學 都 要 經過 大街 。
|still|remembers|primary school|||||time||after school|||pass|the main street
He still remembers when he was in primary school, he had to pass through the main street every time he returned to school after class.
雖然 成 個 城市 嘅 人 都 好 有 公德心 , 但係 大街 一樣 烏煙瘴氣 。

Although the people in the whole city are quite civic-minded, the main street is still filled with pollution.
媽媽 話 : 「 呢啲 係 工廠 嘅 廢氣 嚟 。 」
|says|these||factory||waste gas|is
Mom said: 'These are the factory's waste gases.'
Daniel 問 : 「 噉 點樣 先 可以 解決 問題 ?
|||how|||solve|
點樣 先至 可以 令到 空氣 好 啲 ? 」
|only then||make|air||
媽媽 話 : 「 其實 種 多 啲 植物 就 得 , 植物 會 吸 走 空氣 入面 嘅 二氧化碳 , 排放 返 新鮮 嘅 氧氣 …… 」
|||planting||more|plants||is fine|plants||absorb||air|inside||carbon dioxide|release||fresh||oxygen
Mom said: 'Actually, just planting more plants will do. Plants will absorb the carbon dioxide in the air and release fresh oxygen...'
呢 句 說話 Daniel 一直 記 喺 心 入面 , 大個 之後 終於 成為 咗 一 個 環境 科學家 。

Daniel has always remembered this saying in his heart, and he finally became an environmental scientist when he grew up.
D aniel 對 世界 嘅 貢獻 好 大 。

After twenty years, Daniel told his daughter Naya: 'If you want to make a contribution to the world, you must work hard on developing technology!'
就 好似 我 以前 噉 , 我 好 努力 研究 環境 科技 , 今時今日 大家 先至 可以 享受 到 清新 嘅 空氣 …… 」
|||before|like|||effort|studied|environment||nowadays||only now||enjoy||fresh||air
Just like I used to, I worked really hard on researching environmental technology, and only today can everyone enjoy fresh air...
Naya 好 同意 , 覺得 爸爸 真係 好 叻 。
||agree||dad|really||smart
Naya agrees very much and thinks that Dad is really awesome.
有 一 日 , Naya 岀門 返學 , 居然 發現 成 條 大街 都 烏煙瘴氣 , 連 啲 空氣 都 黑麻麻 !

One day, when Naya went out to school, she was surprised to find the entire street filled with smoke and pollution, even the air was dark and murky!

just||||air|still||why||out of the blue||become|
Clearly, the air was still very good a few days ago, why has it suddenly changed like this today?
Daniel 即刻 打 電話 畀 地方 官員 , 問 : 「 發生 咗 咩 事 ?
||||||official|||||
Daniel immediately called the local official to ask: 'What happened?'
點解 啲 空氣 突然間 變成 噉 ? 」
Why did the air suddenly change like this?
官員 好 冷靜 噉 話 : 「 你 嗰個 機械 植物 前 幾 日 正式 停機 喇 , 所以 呢 幾 日 嘅 空氣 咪 變 返 十 幾 年 之前 噉 囉 。 」
||calm||||that||||||officially|shutdown|||||||||returning|back|ten|||||
The official calmly said: 'Your mechanical plant officially shut down a few days ago, so the air these past few days has reverted to how it was over a decade ago.'
Daniel 好 緊張 , 問 : 「 好哋哋 做 乜嘢 要 停 機 ? 」
||nervous||good||what|||machine
Daniel, feeling very nervous, asked: 'Why does it have to shut down for everything to be alright?'
官員 話 : 「 冇錢 囉 。
||no money|
嗰 間 每 年 都 會 資助 政府 嘅 公司 因為 經濟 唔 好 , 今年 決定 唔 再 畀 錢 。
|classifier for buildings|||||subsidize|||company|||||this year|||||
That company, which has been funding the government every year due to the poor economy, has decided not to give money this year.
冇 辦法 之下 , 我哋 唯有 停止 呢個 計劃 。 」

With no other options, we can only stop this plan.
Daniel 好 嬲 , 問 : 「 政府 冇 錢 咩 ? 」

Daniel is very angry and asks, 'Does the government have no money?'
官員 口窒窒 噉 話 : 「 我哋 年年 都 唔夠 錢 用 㗎 啦 …… 」

Daniel 搖頭 嘆氣 , 話 : 「 煙花 係 會 污染 空氣 。
||sigh||||||
Daniel shook his head and sighed, saying: 'Fireworks do pollute the air.'
好彩 我 發明 嘅 機械 植物 有 引進 去 其他 國家 , 我 亦 相信 佢哋 會 繼續 發展 更 多 技術 去 保護 環境 …… 」 D aniel 停 咗 停 , 至 繼續 話 : 「 至於 我哋 要 做 嘅 , 係 唔好 失去 愛護 環境 嘅 心 , 同埋 要 懷抱 希望 , 相信 終 有 一 日 , 我哋 嘅 市長 或者 下屆 市長 會 明白 環境保護 嘅 重要 …… 」

Fortunately, the mechanical plants I invented have been introduced to other countries, and I also believe they will continue to develop more technology to protect the environment...'' Daniel paused before continuing, 'As for what we need to do, it is to not lose the heart of caring for the environment, and to hold onto hope, believing that one day our mayor or the next mayor will understand the importance of environmental protection...'
第 二 日 , 所有 新聞 嘅 頭條 都 印 住 市長 喺 花車 上面 揮手 個 樣 。
